<h2>Making your Resources items publicly
accessible</h2>














<p>When you use the Resources tool to upload an item, you can choose to
keep that item accessible only to members of your site, or you can
choose to display the item to anyone who can log into the system. The
latter option also allows you to share an item with the participants
of another site.</p>

<p>To allow people outside your site to see an item in your Resources,
follow these steps:</p>

<ol><li>Click <strong><code>My Workspace</code></strong> to access your personal items, or
click a course or project site tab to access items there.<br /><br />
</li><li>In the <a href="content.hlp?docId=arcc">menubar</a>, click <strong><code>Resources</code></strong>.<br /><br />

</li><li>Find the folder or file you wish to make public, and to the right
of its name, from the <strong><code>Actions</code></strong> menu choose <strong><code>Revise
Details</code></strong>.

<br /><br />
</li><li>Under "Availability and Access", use the checkbox to select
<strong><code>This file is publicly viewable</code></strong>.

<br /><br />
</li><li>Click <strong><code>Update</code></strong>.
</li></ol>

<p>After you've made your files publicly viewable, you can access and
share them via the web. To find the public URL for a file
in Resources, see <a href="content.hlp?docId=auen">Finding the URL of a Resources item</a>.</p>
